In this musical adventure, kind-hearted, insecure, but prodigious singer Melody must overcome the evil plans of Rose Stellar, an envious, evil queen of jealous pop who has sworn to destroy her. Set against the backdrop of New York City, Melody will take audiences on an adventure of song, laughter and heroic quest. With Melody, the “Seven Dwarves” as her musical notes will help guide her moral compass.

Filled with magic, love, and wonder, Melody is an uplifting and inspiring story of self-discovery that celebrates the importance of fulfilling one’s dreams by believing in oneself, and above all, that loving is stronger than being loved.

“I’ve dreamed of making Melody for years, with a vision to deliver empowering messages in a wonderful world full of music and adventure,” says Jeremy Zag. “As a pop star, Melody is adored by her fans, but as a young artist, she struggles with insecurity. On this journey of self-discovery, she realizes that the key to fulfilling her life’s dreams is that she must learn to love herself first. Katy Perry’s journey to stardom is embodied in Melody and given her career-long passion for being an inspiration to her fans, she is the perfect collaborator for our animated film.”

Katy Perry is one of the best-selling artists of all time, with more than 143 million records sold worldwide. All of her studio albums released under Capitol have individually surpassed one billion streams on Spotify. She has nine US number one singles, and has received numerous accolades, including four Guinness World Records, five Billboard Music Awards, five American Music Awards, a Brit Award, and a Juno Award.
